It's official

i don't believe it. i think he's yankin' huskernation's collective chain.

 

just a hunch.

No he won't play..you have to give an injury report to the big 12 the monday of the game..I'm pretty sure this is right

You took hack seriously??? newbie

are the 2 running backs for oklahoma better then javorskie lane and the other texas a&m running back?

[gamecocks]

Well neither one is as big as Lane is, but they both run very hard and hit the hole very hard. This combo is not going to be an easy one to stop but if we can contain them, then it is a huge advantage to the Huskers.

[Touchdown Tommie]

This is good news, but their backup is a good runner too. Anything that might give some confidence to the Blackshirts is good. Hopefully the front seven will use this and play extremely well!!!

[huskerfan17]

not to mention its carriker and moore's and last time to try and win a big 12 championship so im sure they will be fired up.

[MVPujols]

NU Notes: OU coach won't rule out star back Peterson

LINCOLN - Oklahoma running back Adrian Peterson remains "unlikely" to play Saturday in the Big 12 championship game, though coach Bob Stoops has not ruled him out against Nebraska.

 

"I don't want to rule anything out until we've had a chance to totally confirm it with everybody," Stoops said Monday.

 

Peterson, a star junior who rushed for 935 yards in six games before suffering a broken collarbone on Oct. 14, has progressed well since the injury.

 

He was initially not expected to return until the Sooners' bowl game but had expressed hope to play last Saturday against Oklahoma State. He did not, after a bone scan early last week revealed insufficient healing.

Stoops had a said he wasnt going to at his press conference today.

[husker rob]

i just dont want this to be an excuse for the media to use and not give us the props we deserve when we win the game.

 

even though they would probably say that AD was not at 100%

I bet Callahan promised not to call trick plays.

[BIGREDIOWAN]

Well I'm relieved and pissed at the same time. Relieved because I feel that AD is the strongest RB out there when he's 100% and pissed because I wanted us to shut all the OU fans up by driving their boy into the ground!!!

well, if it's in a *official* report, then i stand corrected.

 

but because it's reported, does that mean he can't play? i'm not sure what the rules are in this case.

[huskernumerouno]

With or with out AD the sooners are going to be tough. We will get their best game and if we win it would not have mattered if AD had played or not. Actually he would probably hurt them more than help them at this point. I agree he should sit out and heal 100%. He has alot of $ riding on his draft status and if he comes back and gets hurt, his $ go down.

Yeah their backfield is doing pretty damn good right now without him so I don't think that's going to stop them..........
